the appliance with a steam cleaner. Moisture could accumulate in electrical
components. Hot vapors can lead to the damage of plastic parts. The appliance must
be dry before it is placed back into service.

Do not allow such substances to come into contact the appliance parts.
Do not use any abrasive cleaners

The freezer, however, will become progressively covered with frost. This should be
removed.
Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost from the evaporator as you could
damage it.
However, when the ice becomes very thick on the inner liner, complete defrosting
should be carried out as fellows:
Unplug the unit. Remove the drain plug from the inside of the freezer. Defrosting
usually takes a few hours. To defrost faster keep the freezer door open.
For draining, place a tray beneath the outer drain plug.
Pull out the drain dial .
Rotate the drain dial 180 degree. This will let the water flow out in the tray.
